If installed, where should the status monitor indicator(s) for the galvanic isolator be positioned?

Positioning the status monitor indicator(s) for the galvanic isolator in an accessible location is essential for effective monitoring and maintenance. Accessibility allows for regular checks without requiring complicated maneuvers or special tools, making it easier for boat operators to confirm that the isolator is functioning correctly. If indicators are placed in difficult-to-reach spots, there is a higher likelihood they may be ignored or overlooked, potentially compromising the galvanic isolator's effectiveness in preventing corrosion.

Options like placing the indicators near the main control panel or above the isolator may seem logical, but if they aren’t easily reached or clearly visible, they serve little practical purpose. Similarly, underwater placement is generally impractical for monitoring functions; it would hinder visual inspections and defeats the purpose of an easily accessible status indicator. Therefore, the focus on accessibility emphasizes the importance of ensuring that users can regularly and effectively monitor the system for optimal performance.
